Bald ist die Sonne gegangen hinab...
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Our translations:  CAT
Bald ist die Sonne gegangen
hinab hinters Felsenjoch;
ich halte dich fest umfangen,
wie lange, wie lange noch?

Und will der Tag verblassen,
dann winken die Sterne sacht;
doch wenn du mich verlassen,
dann ist es rabenschwarze Nacht.

Dann pfeift das heisere Käuzlein
an meinem Fensterrand,
dann legt man schwarze Kreuzlein
auch mir bald in die starre Hand.

Aviat s’amagarà el sol darrere el congost rocós
Language: Catalan (Català)  after the German (Deutsch) 
Add this translation to the Basket
Aviat s’amagarà el sol
darrere el congost rocós;
et tinc entre els meus braços,
per quant de temps, per quant de temps encara?

I quan es fa fosc,
les estrelles em fan senyals dolçament;
però si tu em deixessis,
aleshores seria negra nit.

Llavors l’òliba enrogallada 
xiularia a la meva finestra,
llavors també aviat posarien petites creus negres
a la meva mà rígida.
